October 2015
Following a significant increase in single family home prices over the summer, recent price growth is more tempered and flattening. In our opinion, this pause in price growth is welcome since we do not want to see prices exceed the basic fundamental measures that drive the market long-term. We typically see closings subside this time of year and 2015 continues this pattern, however, both escrows opened and the number of closed ho... read more

While we see each high-rise project as a market unto itself, for brevity, we occasionally refer to the “market” for high-rises.
The high-rise market is registering fairly flat sales rates, however pricing continues to ratchet higher in a majority of buildings. There are some notable performers. In the past couple of years, Downtown has had rather tight supply, with limited resale activity in Newport Lofts and Soho Lofts, both of w... read more
